Mojis is a new feature by Skype that would now allow users to send gifs from popular movies and TV serials in an IM chat. The messaging company has collaborated with movie studios and publishers including Universal Studios, Disney Muppets, BBC, and others for its Moji collection.

Users can send Mojis by tapping on the emoticon button inside the chat window, selecting the one they like, preview it, and dropping them inside the chat.

Skype, besides introducing its Mojis feature in the v6.2 update for Android, has also brought other changes for users of the app. The update features a new media bar, making it easier for users to send media files, location and more inside a chat.

Some Samsung, HTC, Sony and Xiaomi handsets might also be able to show unread messages count on the Skype launcher icon. The latest Skype app v6.2 can be downloaded from Google Play.
